An EXTREMELY Simple Guide to Mastodon (for when someone says it's too complicated to catch on) (www.staygrounded.online)
PS- The "real" (non-joke) full guide for the Masto-curious is here.
Mastodon is Rewinding the Clock on Social Media — in a Good Way (chrlschn.medium.com)
In many ways, Mastodon feels like rewinding the clock on social media back to the early days of Twitter and Facebook. On the consume side, that means that your home feed has no algorithm (this can be disorienting at first)....

Lemmy for Mastodon - A new account dedicated to promoting the Lemmy communities and instances that make the most sense in your Mastodon feed (mastodon.social)
This is shameless self-promotion, but part of a working theory I have that Mastodon users have more to offer Lemmy than your average Reddit user. See my other post about it here: lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/2174573...

Last Week in the Fediverse – episode 31 (fediversereport.com)
We need a more user-friendly approach to telling people about the Fediverse (kbin.social)
I'm assuming most of us here want a large community. The reality is most people aren't into technology nearly as much as many of the people actually on the Fediverse. For other people who are into tech (like myself and a lot of people here), the federation technology itself being promoted as a core component of the appeal makes...

Why are trending posts on Mastodon mostly negatively politically oriented? (lemm.ee)
It seems anytime I try to check out Mastodon it is always some negative political view or affiliation of why X, Y & Z is bad. Is this just what most people like boosting or is it a sign of botting to push negativity over the more positive headlines?...

Will lemmy implement veilid? (www.google.com)
Recently cult of the dead cow came out with veilid, a secure decentralised way of sending encrypted information and i think this could be a huge asset to lemmy. Cult of the dead cow even mentions mastadon by name as they say this is the type of application it was designed for. If veilidchat takes off then i really hope the devs...
